Wow. Just read through this thread having not picked up on it before.  Your progress is both impressive and rapid. I really like the look of your boards, they have that 'natural' quality that's often hard to achieve whilst maintaining flexibility. The modular set up combines aesthetics with playability nicely.

Thanks kindly chaps.  :D

I've now lobbed a load of fine ballast onto it so that the scree slope is less stepped and more 'flowing'. What this does mean, of course, is that a fair bit of crumbled cork that I glued down then painted has now disappeared from sight. Trouble is I never really know how the details will work until I actually do them.  :)

Quick update with, now that the glue has dried, a photo of the scree slope.



Next stage will be to add all the vegetation. I'd have done that by now except I've been distracted by building a dragon......  :D

I did like this before, but I can see why you moved it on. Depending on how many scree runners have been down it the finer stuff ends nearer to the foot of the slope. Looking good.
Still looking forward to the watery bits  :)

Thanks chaps  :)

It's worth me adding that I wanted this tile to look very different from other raised sections: a scar on the landscape.

And Jeff: do crack on with the tiles, you'll be glad you did.   ;)

That looks very realistic.
Well worth the added time and attention to detail.

Over the weekend I've been adding vegetation while binge watching and being inspired by Season 3 of Vikings (and trying to resist starting a Viking project!):

Anyways, a little bit more veg to add such as leaves to the bushes and a tad more flock but nearly done:
